What information should I have ready for Elizabeth Music Group Master Royalties to investigate my master royalties?
To investigate potential master royalties and see what may be uncollected, Elizabeth Music Group Master Royalties generally needs enough information to identify the recording, understand your participation in it, and determine which label, royalty department, or other party may be responsible for accounting to you.
Useful information can include the song and artist name, release information, the record label involved, your role on the recording, any producer or artist agreements, royalty or producer-point terms, previous advances or payments, royalty statements, ownership information, and relevant correspondence or documentation concerning the recording.
Elizabeth Music Group Master Royalties reviews catalog information, metadata, ownership details, and contracts as part of its process. The team can then communicate with the appropriate record labels and royalty departments, handle registrations and documentation, follow up on royalty inquiries, and help pursue eligible master royalties.
A musician does not necessarily need to have every document perfectly organized before asking for help. The purpose of the catalog review is to identify what information is available, what may still be needed, and whether there appears to be a viable master royalty collection opportunity. If you are missing documentation, Elizabeth Music Group’s team may be able to help.
